Mm, uh

Mm, yeah

Mm-mm

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Mm, uh

Mm, yeah

Mm-mm

Yeah, yeah

Baby, I just don't get it

Do you enjoy being hurt?

I know you smelled the perfume

The makeup on his shirt

You don't believe his stories

You know that they're all lies

Bad as you are, you stick around

And I just don't know why

If I was your man (baby, you'd)

Never worry 'bout (what I do)

I'd be coming home (back to you)

Every night, doing you right

You're the type of woman (deserves good things)

Fist full of diamonds (hand full of rings)

Baby, you're a star (I just want to show you, you are)

You should let me love you

Let me be the one to

Give you everything you want and need

Baby, good love and protection

Make me your selection

Show you the way love's supposed to be

Baby, you should let me love you, love you, love you

Love you, yeah

Listen

Your true beauty's description

Looks so good that it hurts

You're a dime plus 99

And it's a shame don't even know what you're worth

Everywhere you go, they stop and stare

'Cause you're bad and it shows

From your head to your toes, out of control, baby you know

If I was your man (baby, you'd)

Never worry 'bout (what I do)

I'd be coming home (back to you)

Every night doin' you right

You're the type of woman (deserves good things)

Fist full of diamonds (a handful of rings)

Baby, you're a star (I just want to show you, you are)

You should let me love you

Let me be the one to

Give you everything you want and need

Ooh, baby, good love and protection

Make me your selection

Show you the way love's supposed to be

Baby, you should let me

You deserve better, girl (you know you deserve better)

We should be together girl (baby, ooh)

With me and you, it's whatever girl, hey! (Ooh)

So can we make this thing ours?

You should let me love you (you should let me love you)

Let me be the one to (let me be the one to give)

Give you everything you want and need (everything you need, yeah)

Good love and protection (said everything)

Make me your selection (will you take me, baby?)

Show you the way love's supposed to be (ooh)

You should let me love you (baby, you should let me love you)

Let me be the one to

Give you everything you want and need (I'll give you everything)

Good love and protection (that good love & protection)

Make me your selection

Show you the way love's supposed to be (hey)

You should let me love you (ayy, love you)

Let me be the one to (the one to)

Give you everything you want and need (everything you need, ooh baby)

Good love and protection (protection)

Make me your selection (selection, baby)

Show you the way love's supposed to be yeah (ooh, yeah)

Let me love you

That's all you need, baby
